Dents Gloves is a well-established luxury brand specializing in premium leather gloves, belts, and accessories, with a heritage dating back to 1777. The company targets discerning consumers seeking high-quality leather goods, operating primarily through an e-commerce platform powered by Shopify. The website presents a professional and consistent brand image, offering free UK delivery and a range of products for men and women. Technically, the site leverages modern web technologies including Shopify's infrastructure, jQuery, and various third-party marketing and analytics tools. The site is mobile-optimized and SEO-friendly, providing a good user experience. Security-wise, the website enforces HTTPS and employs Google Consent Mode for privacy compliance, but lacks some recommended security headers and explicit security policies. The absence of WHOIS data for the domain raises concerns about domain registration transparency, which slightly impacts overall trust. Overall, the site is functional, secure, and compliant with privacy regulations, but could improve domain legitimacy and security posture.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

2 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

      • CWE-327
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • ASVS V12.1.1
    • High

      Weak SSL Key Length

      SSL certificate uses 256-bit key, which is considered weak

      What to do: Use at least 2048-bit RSA or 256-bit ECC key

      • CWE-326
      • OWASP A04:2025
      • Mozilla TLS: Mozilla Server Side TLS 6.0 intermediate: rsa_key_size 2048

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Dents Gloves occupies a niche luxury retail market with a strong heritage brand identity. Their business model focuses on direct-to-consumer e-commerce sales of leather gloves and accessories, targeting a premium segment. The company benefits from a consistent branding strategy and a multi-channel presence including social media platforms. The use of Shopify enables scalable online retail operations with integrated marketing and analytics tools. The lack of visible parent or subsidiary companies suggests an independent operation. The brand's longevity and product quality are key competitive advantages. Growth opportunities may include expanding product lines or geographic reach. The partnership ecosystem includes third-party marketing and analytics providers but no direct payment processor domains were identified beyond Shopify's infrastructure.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a moderate security maturity level with HTTPS enforced and privacy compliance mechanisms in place. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options represents a gap in best practices. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the HTML content. The site lacks a published security policy or incident response contact, which limits transparency in security governance. The use of multiple third-party scripts necessitates ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities. The missing WHOIS data for the domain is a notable concern, as it reduces trust in domain ownership and registration legitimacy. Overall, the security posture is adequate for e-commerce but could be enhanced with improved headers, documented policies, and domain registration transparency.

Recommendations

  1. Implement comprehensive security headers including Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and X-Content-Type-Options to mitigate common web attacks.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact information to improve transparency and customer trust.
  3. Investigate and resolve the missing WHOIS data issue to enhance domain registration legitimacy and trustworthiness.
  4. Regularly audit and update third-party scripts and integrations to minimize vulnerability exposure.
  5. Enhance accessibility features to meet compliance standards and improve user experience for all visitors.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on the Shopify platform, utilizing jQuery and several third-party marketing and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Lipscore, and Searchanise. The site uses CDN-hosted fonts and assets for performance optimization. The HTML structure is valid and includes proper meta tags for SEO and social sharing (Open Graph, Twitter Cards). Mobile optimization is good, and the site includes alternate language versions for international audiences. Performance is moderate, likely influenced by multiple external scripts. Accessibility is basic but could be improved. The hosting is managed by Shopify's infrastructure, providing reliable uptime and security. Overall, the technical implementation is solid with room for enhancements in security and accessibility.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
